Yep, Downing appears to have gotten one cross in at least.

Liverpool players and fans making the headlines for all the wrong reasons. Disgraceful !! Bringing shame to this once great club.

Strong rumours that Warnock is on the way out at QPR.

Nope.. that was a city player !

Now confirmed:

Shame really. again I may not like him much, however he had been good for the club generally.

And he never was given a chance for decent funds in the transfer window to compete.

TBH, I don't think Colin did that bad a job at QPR, given the resources he had available as far as the playing staff was concerned.

I liked him for entertainment value.. him and Ian Holloway made the post-match interviews something to look forward too... just Mick McCarthy left now...

I quite like Warnock , can't get my head around the sacking really. What a good job he has done, where do QPR really think they will finish. Maybe the QPR board should speak with Mr Whelan at Wigan, he understands every season they will have a battle to stay up and realise how well Martinez has done for them.

Much debate in the press and forums regarding Scholes...... It doesnt take a genius to work out that the resigning of Scholes is a short term fix and papering over the cracks in Man Utds midfield. I feel Man U require 3 possibly 4 world class players to bolster their squad, Yes their are some quality young players like Cleverley, Jones, Smalling and the da silva twins along with Pogba and Morrison however Man U squad is quite thin. Is fletcher, Anderson and Carrick really Man U class ..? when you look at the formidable players that have played in the centre of midfield. Fergie needs funds to spend on Sneijder / Modric  possibly Cahill in defence  another top class forward and possibly a Goalie - De Gea is struggling, Lindegaard is a slightly better option.

Police have advised his ex-girlfriend to dress up as a fullback - then Downing would never beat her.

Fergie had funds to spend and chose not to (or the players he wanted weren't interested), he still has funds to spend but isn't. I actually think he has done a phenomenal job this season to keep them in touch with City with the midfield they currently have, and who know if they can get Cleverley back and Scholes plays like he used to, then they could still win the league.

I agree.

Cahill to Chelsea. Three year deal with the option of a fourth, apparently.

Carroll back to Newcastle...15m? According to the Times, who do not usually print red top crap. If this is true Liverpool must have a replacement lined up..

Darren Bent? I can almost see Saint slashing his wrists.

The Carroll story's been rubbished from all quarters - and despite me thinking he was crazily overpriced at £35m (possibly would have been at £5m), it'd be even more daft to cut losses at this stage.

He's still only young and has a lot of potential to improve. Indeed, he looked a top player at Newcastle. I remember other big blokes like Niall Quinn and Drunken Ferguson struggling to find consistent form for a couple of years, before adapting their game and becoming legends at their respective clubs.

I think Liverpool's (Dalglish's) conundrum is to find a way of using him more effectively. That doesn't mean reverting to a game based predominantly on route one football, but being able to vary the teams style throughout a game, to include placing the ball on a charging-forwards Carroll's bonce, but also the intricate passing moves they've done well this season at times. I guess they could start by stressing to Downing that putting in crosses is quite an important facet of what's expected of him.

And if you reckon I've said all the above rose-tinted stuff because the thought of signing Darren Bent scares the bejesus out of me, you could have a point...

Stomach churning and feeling nervous!  Off to the pub to watch THFC v Everton just hope we play better than we did against WBA last time out!!

Good performance so far. There could be more goals if Everton come out to play.

A much better performance tonight but not convinced about Adebayor.  A crucial three points so looking forward to my quick hop over for Saturday's game against Wolves!!

Hard to believe how well things are going currently

It's kind of like fairy land, as if in a dream
